Abstract

Let K/kK/k be a finite Galois CM-extension of number fields whose Galois group GG is monomial and SS a finite set of places of kk.\ Then the "Stickelberger element" θK/k,S\theta_{K/k,S} is defined.\ Concerning this element,\ Andreas Nickel formulated the non-abelian Brumer and Brumer-Stark conjectures and their "weak" versions.\ In this paper,\ when GG is a monomial group,\ we prove that the weak non-abelian conjectures are reduced to the weak conjectures for abelian subextensions.\ We write D4p, Q2n+2D_{4p},\ Q_{2^{n+2}} and A4A_4 for the dihedral group of order 4p4p for any odd prime pp,\ the generalized quaternion group of order 2n+22^{n+2} for any natural number nn and the alternating group on 4 letters respectively.\ Suppose that GG is isomorphic to D4pD_{4p},\ Q2n+2Q_{2^{n+2}} or A4×Z/2ZA_4 \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}.\ Then we prove the ll-parts of the weak non-abelian conjectures,\ where l=2l=2 in the quaternion case,\ and ll is an arbitrary prime which does not split in Q(ζp)\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p) in the dihedral case and in Q(ζ3)\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_3) in the alternating case.\ In particular,\ we do not exclude the 2-part of the conjectures and do not assume that SS contains all finite places which ramify in K/kK/k in contrast with Nickel's formulation.\
